Perhaps you could consider asking for support on GBAtemp. There are plenty of guys who know their stuff over there and seen as it’s open source I don’t see why not. Just an idea

Sorry for the shitty picture. The angle it's takem from makes it hard to see. But the wire is connected to the right pin. I cant find any continuity between the pin on U10 and the via the trace leads to. I also tried the wifi module; no success. The only conclusions I can draw now are these...

Sorry for no updates but there hasn't been much happening I'm afraid. I decided to scrap my first attempt and move on to my second one. This time however I'm using an RVK-01 board. I've just completed the U10 relocation and checked continuity on the ground pins on the U10 and my trace is cut +...

When I say button I mean the tact switch required for the PMS to work.

So I've been busy with other things lately, mainly the new addition to our family (a puppy). But I finally came back with some motivation to troubleshoot this thing. After all I still have plenty of wiis to go through :) So I checked my voltages and they all seem fine. The PMS is doing a...

So first test was, as kinda expected, a discouraging failure. Absolutely no signal. After I flicked my power switch I thought I was good but then I burnt my hand on something and I saw smoke coming from somewhere. I instantly panicked and disconnected the battery and it stopped. Could it be a...

And how does one go about doing this? Do I just connect a wire from where I attached the cable to the board to ground?

So after being away for 2 days I finally finished wiring everything up. While doing this I realised that I need to work on my soldering. Not that the results are terrible, but I’m struggling to tin my iron for some reason. Not sure if Weller’s ET-tips work differently but together with some flux...

Thanks a lot Ginger for the clarification! I actually decided to get myself some battery holders since I don't have a very wide soldering tip yet and the holders were like 1.5 bucks or something. This also lets me swap them with ease down the line assuming I don't have another portable that I'm...

Been waiting for my superglue to dry all day. Meanwhile I’ve been hard at work on a case for my portable. As I was doing that many ideas popped up in my head, for example a dock. I’ve figured most of it out but I was meaning to ask you guys if you know if any of the unused pins on the AV port...

Ahh that’s what I thought. In that case I might hopefully be able to get everything hooked up pretty soon. More pics on their way

Here it is! My first-ever trimmed Wii! Plus accessories: Still a long way to go but finally some results. I really wanna test this thing once I fix the Bluetooth again. The only problem is that I don’t understand where to connect the wires from my custom regulators to the board. Do I just...

That's what I'm planning to do but I'm not sure It'll work. Are there any traces or important components in this area? *Inside the blue lines* The bit on my dremel is really wide so my cuts arent as clean and I'm afraid of destoying my board. I'll buy the bits before I start trimming just...

Alright. Yeah I've stocked up on a litre of IPA but unfortunately I think my cutting blades are too wide to cut off the AV-port. If you look at the trim guide the margin is basically non-existant. So I would need a really thin blade and the one I'm using is like 1,5mm. I did however cut off the...

Ehe. I kinda fucked my regulators on the wii by practising my desoldering on them. It helped tremendously in removing U10 but now I can't test things until after I trim. I'm just going in. Btw, do you guys recommend washing the board with water after trimming? And scrubbing it? How do you clean...
